What is this noise?

Evening all

I have a squeak.  Looking from the front of the car it appears to be coming from the back L/H corner behind the engine.  It is much louder when cold but becomes quieter once the engine has run for a few minuites.  I was told it may be the vacume pump.  Any thoughts?  I had the auxilary belt & a knackered pulley replaced last week as iI thought it was this causing the noise.

 

Thanks.

Hello

I'm still trying to find out what this noise is. I am not being allowed to upload even a 4 second iPad video of the engine noise. Is there anyone out there that I can email the video to?

Probably auxiliary belt not tightened properly/enough. Did you try refitting it? Or may be try the other one from other manufacturer? I am experiencing similar issue but I am too lazy to replace it ;)

Thanks Arminator

The auxiliary belt & pulley have been changed. They are locacated near the front as far as I know. The squeak seems to be coming from the back L/H corner. It does go once the engine is warm.
